Preloader page zero problem gone in 1.0rc1?!

I was having this show up for me. I didn't do a damn thing except
upgrade Wine via apt-get from budgetdedicated.com. It's stopped giving
this message.

It is not gone. Problem is allocating that section of memory is needed so particular programs work. Wine is just getting more selective. If you run programs that will never call that space it is being attempt to avoid allocating that memory.

In the past wine was always allocating the space if it was needed or not.

Wine is just getting smartter. So expect to see it again some time.

Also that is a warning not a error. Lot of applications use to work with the warning reason they did not truly need that memory space. If detection of what applications need and don't need that memory space gets great that message might upgrade from a warning to a error.

I was wondering the same thing. I don't run much under Wine and the only thing I run from the terminal is regedit and 1.0rc1 doesn't show that error anymore.

Oh well, think nice thoughts. Good to see Wine getting better though.
